iGEM Yale

lab notebook: week 2 (6/14-6/20)

  • Monday 6/14--Redo of 6/11 assay of bacterial growth within a narrow copper(II) concentrations after analysis of data showed uniformly poor growth.
  • See more/less
  • Tuesday 6/15--Results and analysis of the 6/14 narrow concentration range growth assay as well as planning for the creation of a standard iGEM plasmid bearing the thiosulfate reductase operon (phsABC).
  • See more/less
  • Wednesday 6/16--checked on spotted cell survival assay, collected MOPS minimal media materials, started making component solutions
  • See more/less
  • Thursday 6/17--more minimal media work and meeting, started BL21 culture
  • See more/less
  • Friday 6/18--plasmid pSB74 arrived (!), already in some unspecified E coli, so plated them out. Transformed promoters (constitutive & IPTG inducible), terminator, and repressor (for inducible promoter) into BL21. Also ran BL21 copper growth assays for wide and narrow concentrations ranges. June the 19th--in which it is revealed that there was a transformation-fail Redid transformation, this time into LE392, set aside pSB74 containing cells in fridge

  • Sunday 6/20--in evening inoculate 5 mL liquid cultures
  • See more/less
